Administration Console Online Help

Deploy startup
and shutdown classes

After you configure a startup class or shutdown class, you deploy it
to one or more servers. You can also deploy it to clusters.

When you deploy to all or part of a cluster, the
Administration Console initiates a two-phase deployment. In general,
such a deployment ensures that if the deployment fails for one active
server, it fails for all active servers.

To deploy startup and shutdown classes:

If you have not already done so, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Lock & Edit (see Use the Change Center).

In the
left pane of the Console, expand Environment
and select Startup and Shutdown Classes.

On the
Startup and Shutdown Classes page, click the
startup class or shutdown class name.

Select
Targets.

To deploy to all or part of a cluster:

On
the Targets page, in the
Clusters table, select the check box next to
the cluster.

To
assign the class to all servers in the cluster, select
All Servers in the Cluster.

To
assign the class only to one or more specific servers, select
Part of the Cluster. Then select the
servers you want to target.

To
assign the startup or shutdown class to servers that are not in a
cluster, in the Servers table, select one or more
servers.

If the deployment
fails for one server, the Administration Console reports the error
but continues deploying on any remaining servers that you
selected.

Click
Save.

To activate these changes, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Activate Changes. Not all changes take effect immediately—some require a restart (see Use the Change Center).
